Saw the famous Chateau de Pau today! It’s pretty quaint, as castles go, which was nice because it made for a shorter tour. I love a good castle, but once you’ve seen 5 or 6 you’ve seen them all. It was beautiful today, 80 degrees and sunny. The buses don’t run on Sunday (except for one or two of the lines) so I had a 45 minute walk to school to meet with the group and another 45 minute walk to get to the castle. It was nice to be outside for that long! We ate pizza at a restaurant next to the castle, then found the most delicious raspberry gelato on the way home. When I got home I tried out my family’s new pool, which was wonderful in the heat and sun. I took a 3 hour nap after…I think the sun and walking took a lot out of me today! It’s a good thing though, because now I can stay up later tonight and skype with mon petit ami. The 6-hour time difference is a little challenging at times. Tomorrow is the 4th of July…so I’m thinking the USAC group might have a picnic under the one American flag we found downtown. We figure the French won’t mind since they helped us with the whole revolution thing, and then had their own.
A demain!
